a show

I'm going to have an unexpected show in October... this is good news because my resume was looking pretty bare for 2008. Also have a show happening at the start of the new year, although I should probably get back in touch with them and confirm things.

- Timothy Buckwalter did a three-part "oral history" with Philadelphia artist Michael Macfeat... and Mildred Greenberg was mentioned (!) -"Michael Macfeat: In 1986 I founded Meat, giving the original Heat group members a chance to exhibit with a wider selection of artists, with me in the unenviable position of curator. There were 16 original members, the five Heat artists plus Harry Anderson, David Goerk (of Bunnydrums), Judith Schaecter, Millie Greenberg (a septuagenarian), Tom Steigerwald, Bill Russell, Martha Masiello, Linda Stoudt, Arline Peco and Bill Hooper."click here to scroll through much Mildred...

the opening is saturday october 11th... not sure what time but probably in the evening.

i'm not expecting a bunch of people to make that opening, that's a lot to ask, but hudson is kind of a cool town to make a day-trip out of the city, and october might be a nice month... so.. just sayin'

oh yeah, right nearby is frederick chirch's olana and thomas cole's home and studio. barnaby you would certainly enjoy olana.

okay, actually i am now thinking that if you are in nyc and have not been to olana that october 11th would be a perfect day for you to visit, followed by a visit to the reception at john davis gallery.

no, that is just a studio shot. but i like how they all look together.

i did experiment with attaching that tattered t-shirt to that painting, but decided against it. the other sock was used in a couple paintings, and i will most likely be using that sock in something. stripes are nice.

Joe is artcritical's number one super all-star. It would be great if he could review one of your upcoming exhibitions. I met him at the one and only artcritical 'business' meeting that took place at David Cohen's previous living space a number of years ago. Joe was wearing a really nice striped scarf. At some point afterwards David said that Joe liked my writing but I never heard that from Joe himself. It still made me feel slightly more confident about my writing.

Super congrats on the upcoming exhibition. I’ve heard from some friends who show with John that they like his program and his dedication to “paint’in”. Good excuse to busy your fingers more on the palette and less on the keyboard.
